Welcome to CAMP!
This program is designed to be part of the solution to stop the proposed administration of water rights in 2025 by KDA-DWR. It is a way that YOU can keep control of your water right, stabilize the local economy, and increase conservation!
Compensated allocation management program
Program Requirements & Benefits
- Must be located in an area with 50% or greater impact to the stream (red or orange zones)
- Deposit all or a portion of your water right based on average historic use from 2002–2021
- Once deposited, the water stays in the ground and is not pumped or leased elsewhere (100% conservation)
- Annual compensation based on $200 per acre-foot of historical use, funded by the State of Kansas
- Dryland or limited-irrigation farming is allowed
- Full allocation returns once the deposit contract is completed
- If more than 50% of historical use is deposited across multiple water rights, some flexibility may be available through the Rattlesnake WCA
